Could anyone tell me where I can get HMs Strength and Rock Smash in Pokemon FireRed?

Go to this page for all the locations! You can get Strength from the Safari Zone Warden and Rock Smash from Island 1.

Thank you very much!

Hi I recently defeated the E4 and now I'm trying to complete the pokedex. Anyway I'm looking for a ponyta which is supposed to be on island three. My question is how do I get there? Btw I've already done the save the girl quest...

I bought a copy of Leafgreen off of eBay and it ran well and stuff. But for the third time now, I get an error "The Save File has been deleted..." and I did not delete the save file. Is it possible that the game:

A) Is a bootleg (fake)
B) Has an internal problem
C) Just is failtacular(?)

If anyone could answer my question or explain how to fix it, I would appreciate it before dumping another eight hours into a game that's going to delete itself. =.=

its fake. I don't think that "The save file has been deleted" even appears in game.

I just didn't know, I mainly play R/S/E and they never do that so..... o3o

Yeah, legit games do NOT say "the save file is okay" when you start them up, so your game is very likely a bootleg.

So if you really want to play LeafGreen, you should buy another (legit) copy. But there are tons of fakes out there, so be very, very, very careful. If you're going to use sites like ebay again, I would avoid sellers who have like 10+ copies of the game available (a sign that they're selling fakes) and sellers from places like Hong Kong (notorious for selling fakes). It also helps if the seller has a picture of the actual cartridge too, instead of just the box art, so you can see if the cart looks real (also try to find a picture of what a legit LG cart looks like too so you can compare). Also, try to find someone who will accept returns if the game you buy does turn out to be another fake. :P

If you Google "fake GBA games" or something like that, you can find lots of guides with tips for identifying fakes.
And while there are many fakes out there, you can find legit copies with a bit of work, so don't give up - I recently bought a second copy of Emerald off ebay, completely legit. I had to weed through a lot of obvious fakes and suspicious looking games until I found the one that I bought.

I have already all of the EV guides, charts, etc. I just want personal opinions about this.

I just got my Aerodactyl (Lv. 5) and I want to make him pretty strong. I haven't beaten the elite four yet (on this new game) so most of my pokemon are 45-50. I want to EV train Aero in ATK and SPD but I don't know which pokemon give the best stats and have the highest encounter rate. What would you recommend I fight for atk/spd? Also is there something that can help me keep track of how many of that pokemon I've killed, etc.
